Specifications:
- Fiskars Folding Spade (made by Fiskars in Finland) is a modern rendition of the G.I. style folding spade and is NATO approved.
- The "D" style handle more comfortable to use than the straight handle of the Glock, but others may well prefer the straight handle.
- The spade is 23 inches long when open, with an eight inch blade.
- The blade is slightly compromised in depth because the hinge extends approximately 1-3/4 inches into the spade face, but for 99% of situations this is not going to cause a problem.
- It folds into a relatively compact package (9 1/2 x 6 1/4 x 2 inches), but is fairly heavy at 36.5 oz.
